"For years, we relied on client and lawyer referrals for new business. However times have changed and a strong internet presence is critical to success. FindLaw provides us that presence. We previously had a plain vanilla website but FindLaw helped us design a first class site which, as a result of its technical expertise and guidance, has brought us substantial increase in inquiries and cases in our real estate, commercial litigation and business divorce practice.
What impressed me with FindLaw was that the people we worked with always had a strong personal interest in making sure that we were getting the right bang for our buck. They monitor our site and from time to time make recommendations on what we can do to improve its visibility. We have received numerous compliments on our website from potential clients, as well as other professionals which frankly make us look good. Internet marketing is a constantly evolving process and we feel that FindLaw is on the cutting edge and staying ahead of the pack. That is important so we likewise can stay ahead of the pack. Thanks FindLaw."

"I'm very pleased with my Findlaw website. The Findlaw staff listened to me about my vision for my practice, and crafted a website that allows me to communicate directly with my potential clients. With the volume of potential clients that contact me through my website, I have been able to consistently maintain a caseload containing the type and variety of cases and clients that interest me, and as a result, I am enjoying the best years of my professional life. Thanks, Findlaw."

"Having been a trial lawyer for several decades, I was at first hesitant to get involved with commercial marketing for my law firm because of my long standing practice of generating business on a word-of-mouth basis. However, in recent years, trying to compete with a number of law firms that are willing to invest an enormous amount of money on advertising has proved to be challenging. In using Findlaw, we have been provided with a way to generate a great deal of business without spending an exorbitant amount of money on cheesy television and yellow pages ads. Findlaw has been an absolute delight to work with and is a great asset to have on our team. With their help, we at Erlichman Law Firm are confident that we will have our best year yet...that is until next year!"
-Joseph Erlichman

"I have been practicing law for over 31 years. Until this past year, I used Yellow pages advertising to reach potential clients. Because of the inordinate cost of Yellow Pages advertising plus the obvious emergence of the Internet, I explored the possibility of "getting the word out" to potential clients through internet advertising. I began to work with Findlaw to get my advertising transition accomplished. From my very first contact with my Findlaw representative, I have received nothing but the most professional and personal service anyone could imagine. My personal needs and desires for a new website were actually listened to and the end product was a website for which I have received numerous compliments and praise from both clients and other attorneys.
My website has only been up and running for about six months, but I am already receiving at least as many contacts from potential clients as I did with my former advertising in the Yellow Pages. More importantly, the quality of the potential cases seems to have improved as well. Finally, my overall advertising costs have been reduced by over 50% and that figure even takes into consideration the cost incurred for Findlaw to develop and produce my new website.
The bottom line - I couldn't be happier with my experience with FindLaw and I strongly recommend FindLaw to any attorneys wishing to improve their visibility to the public."

"In January 2009, I left a highly sought-after position with one of the largest law firms in the country to start my own practice. I planned on a 6-8 month ramp-up period in order to start covering my costs and paying personal bills, and a full year to return to my prior earnings. However, in less than two months, I have hired two contract attorneys, staffed a full-time receptionist, and have so many calls and requests for consultations that I am turning clients away. My earnings are, without exaggeration, 4-5 times what they were at a large, well-paying firm.

"One year ago I restarted my bankruptcy law practice after being in-house counsel for 7 years. Despite having over 30 years of experience and great credentials, my phone was not ringing. That changed when I was introduced to FindLaw. Findlaw gave me advice that will change forever the way I market my practice. He is the highest level expert in his field; if lawyer marketing experts got lawyer certifications, he is board certified, AV rated, avvo 10, and chair of his section of the bar. Working with Findlaw is a pleasure, and when they talks, I listen.... and the phone rings."
-Joseph McDaniel

"Although I appreciate the power of the web, I confess little understanding of how to utilize its real potential. This requires that I rely on someone with expertise and integrity to reach optimum visibility without being "oversold". My Findlaw consultant was that someone for me. He helped me build my website from the obscure to the obvious in a gradual, evolutionary process. There was never any pushing to sell and suggestions were thoughtful and effective. I could see for myself the difference in results he said certain changes would produce. Findlaw is top notch. They are good at what they do and are easy to do business with. I would endorse them to any colleague serious about enhancing their web presence."

"I have worked with Findlaw since 2008 and it has been a fantastic experience. Not only has the product made a huge difference in client development, but Findlaw truly provides a comprehensive marketing service. They are always there to answer questions and provide tips, advice, etc. on marketing. They are extremely knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to make sure you are getting the most out of your site. Findlaw always makes time to help me with any issues that come up. A true professional - I would recommend Findlaw to any attorney interested in getting more clients."

"I have been working with Findlaw for many years. My firm has consistently been in the top website rankings since Findlaw has been involved.

Findlaw consistently provides valuable advice regarding how to improve our site, and how to stay relevant with the major search engines."

"FindLaw has been instrumental in the growth of our business. Before working with Findlaw, we had a website that was virtually invisible online. Almost immediately after upgrading to a FindLaw template website we started ranking in the major search engines. More importantly, we started receiving phone calls and emails from prospective clients in our primary practice areas; tax law, probate and business law. In July we launched our new upgraded FindLaw custom website and we could not be happier with the way it turned out!"

"FindLaw has been a fantastic resource to our firm. As a start up law firm, we interacted with many vendors to get our firm operational. Findlaw's outstanding service and employees exceeded our expectations and set the bar high for the other vendors. We now say that we want to be the "Find Law" of the legal community. The website development process was understandable and actually fun. From development of the website to positioning on the web, Findlaw provided the help and guidance we needed to successfully market our firm."
-Beth Fitch & Righi Hernandez

"I have been with FindLaw for over three years and have upgraded my site twice. Initially, my practice started growing due to the site. Each time I upgraded, my practice grew substantially. Thanks to Find Law, I only subscribe to internet advertising. My FindLaw representative responds to my questions and problems immediately. He has been instrumental in keeping me aware of upcoming events or changes that may affect my site or my business and frequently makes suggestions to help me further increase contacts from potential clients. Without FindLaw working in the background for me, I would be losing calls and emails from clients. Thank you FindLaw."

"When Findlaw first approached me about a legal web presence I was skeptical. I had tried internet marketing with two other companies and gotten no results. After just a few months with Findlaw I was getting a consistent stream of potential new clients from the web." In addition to creating a web presence that attracts clients, Findlaw has also provided excellent customer service. I could not be happier with Findlaw and my new website."
-Jim Byrne

"Our firm practices employment law and we get many, many more inquiries now through our website than we did before we began working with Findlaw. Findlaw has a lot of knowledge about Internet marketing and they sell a great product, but they also add a lot of value because they teach their clients, too."
-Ed Robaina

"I have been practicing law for nearly 30 years. Until recent years, my business primarily came from referrals and, to a lesser degree, yellow page advertising. However, with the birth of the internet, the writing was clearly on the wall...to reach the widest audience, internet marketing was the future of advertising. Although I made a presence on other attorney-focused websites, it was not until I met Findlaw that I truly understood how ineffective my other websites were. Not only did I not have the benefit of someone with Findlaw's keen experience , but I was never provided with sufficient education or support to understand what needed to be done to achieve success on the internet. All of that changed because of Findlaw. They took the time (and lots of it) to thoroughly and patiently explain the importance of proper website construction, its relationship to the internet, and the keys to placement and positioning of the website on the various search engines. Findlaw had the talent to make simple what I had always thought was a foreign, indecipherable language. Not only did they succeed in educating me, but the Findlaw team made my Findlaw-created website successful beyond even my consultants ambitious projections. If you are not on the internet yet, you need to be. And if you choose anyone but Findlaw to facilitate your transition, you will have done yourself a disservice. Findlaw is extremely knowledgeable, conscientious and they will always do what it takes to help you succeed."
-Ken Chase

"For the past three years Findlaw has provided very valuable internet marketing advice for my practice. They clearly present all the options in this ever changing arena so I can make informed decisions. He also sees to it that those decisions are executed properly. This has not always been my experience with other marketing companies. Their expertise allows me to focus more time on serving my clients rather than worrying about my website. Findlaw is a pleasure to work with and can provide tremendous insight to any lawyer's internet marketing decisions."
-Rob Kleinschmidt

"I tried to count the number of 'vendors' I deal with in the management of my law practice. I lost track at about 20. However, my experience with the team at Thomson Reuters is truly worthy of comment and praise. Their professionalism and competence is nothing short of remarkable. If there was a meeting scheduled at noon...my phone rang on the minute and present were all participants in the conference ready to maximize our time. They truly realized that time is my commodity and that wasting it was counter-productive to what we were trying to accomplish via web-based marketing.
I am not one to write endorsements...but to my colleagues who want to deal consummate professionals, this is definitely the way to go."
-Gregg Woodnick

"While at my former law firm, we set up our internet marketing through Findlaw. Our websites quickly raced to the top of most search engines. It would be an understatement to say that we were pleased with the results. When I opened my new law firm, I sought a quick, strong internet presence. And of course, I once again contacted Findlaw. Within two weeks of my new website being published, I was getting a steady stream of hits. Once again, I am very satisfied with the Findlaw's product and would strongly recommend Findlaw."

"Findlaw helped to bring my previous stodgy website into the current century. I have been thrilled with the results of his development team in translating the vision for my bankruptcy firm into a website that brings in clients. I receive compliments from new clients on a near daily basis claiming that my website was the main reason for choosing my firm for their legal services. Based on that alone, the website has paid for itself may times over."

"Several years ago, our firm decided to make the gradual shift from print marketing to internet marketing. Findlaw has been our primary resource in accomplishing that goal. Findlaw's assistance and guidance with the process has been unparalleled - especially in comparison to other marketing consultants. Findlaw is a limitless resource for qualified information related to internet and other types of marketing. Further, they helped us realize our goal: spend less time on marketing and more time practicing law. Findlaw is a delight to work."

"I began advertising my family law practice with Findlaw approximately three and a half years ago. At the time I was a solo practitioner with no employees and no aspirations for growth. After advertising with Findlaw on a very limited scale I began to quickly realize that I would need to re-evaluate my business objectives as I was receiving more work from the Findlaw advertising then I could complete without hiring at least one paralegal. At the time I decided that I would expand the firm to cover the increased volume of work and hired a part time paralegal. As I increased my advertising with Findlaw I realized that I would have to continue to consider additional growth potential. I believe that solely due to my Findlaw advertising, my practice has now grown to a firm with 3 lawyers, 2 paralegals, and a total of 9 employees. As the advertising continues to provide more work than the current staffing can maintain, I am constantly evaluating the need for additional staffing. Advertising with Findlaw is the reason for my firm's success and was the single most important business decision I have made since leaving a large firm and starting my own practice."

"After opening my own practice in 1999, I quickly learned the value in internet advertising. However, over the last several years, maintaining a strong internet presence has become challenging as the technology and strategies are ever-changing. After hiring FindLaw, my web-marketing is in the hands of experts on the cutting edge who truly understand these changing strategies. I am very pleased with my new web design, which incorporates interactive flash animation, a video and click to chat technology. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to develop and maintain a strong internet presence."
-Craig Gillespie

"As a solo practitioner with limited advertising funds, I have found Findlaw to be an excellent conduit to potential clients. Although I have utilized print media such as billboards and newspapers, the cost-per-client proved to be significantly higher than advertising through Findlaw. To date, the vast majority of my viable cases originate from my internet advertising and Findlaw's professionally-designed web sites. Having utilized a number of different web site developers and legal portals over the past seven years, I can say that Findlaw and my representative have consistently provided superior customer-oriented, pro-active service and have met or exceeded my expectations."

"I have been litigating serious accident and wrongful death cases in Phoenix for over 20 years. When I opened up my own practice I chose Findlaw to help me market my firm. My sales representitive and my FindLaw project manager were always extremely easy to work with, they were responsive, prompt, and they provided frequent and specific advice that was helpful in developing my personal injury web site.
I have gotten many compliments regarding the site, it is an important part of my communication with existing and potential clients. The Findlaw staff have very promptly and ably responded to my needs."

-Rebecca Owen

"For years I have advertised my firm using various media, including the yellow pages, various local TV guides, television, and the internet. When I was approached Findlaw, I was very skeptical. I had heard it all before from salesmen, and I had already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years in advertising with limited success. I did not wish to continue that trend. Findlaw's approach made sense to me, they were very knowledgeable, and I did not believe they were trying to sell me anything I did not need. So I gave Findlaw a try. Almost immediately after my website launched, my internet presence began paying dividends. Within the first 2 months of advertising, I signed up a couple of significant personal injury cases, which will ultimately pay me back my advertising costs and then some. As time passes, my internet traffic increases, and I am able to be much more selective about the cases I take. Findlaw delivered on their promises, and unlike all other advertising media I have tried in the past, Findlaw works! I look forward to many successful years working with Findlaw."

"FindLaw is an invaluable marketing tool upon which my family law practice relies heavily for new client contacts. I recently renewed my contract for another 36 months, and have utilized FindLaw's services to set up three additional websites to promote new practice areas the firm is endeavoring to develop.
I cancelled my Yellow Pages advertisement and recently terminated relationships with two other marketing companies the firm had been using. It was easily determined that our marketing dollars belong with FindLaw, which is bringing the firm tangible results in the way of referrals and new client retainers. We easily receive 35-40 referrals from our FindLaw website each month, many of whom become clients.
I appreciate that our FindLaw representative is very hands-on and pro-active with developing, maintaining, and updating our website. He is available to answer questions and to otherwise assist in helping me promote the firm on the Web. I appreciate the opportunity to refresh the content at no additional cost, and now that it is time to redesign the site, I know that it will be done at a reasonable price.
FindLaw is definitely the best bang for the buck. Although the monthly outlay may seem extravagant at first glance, especially for a small firm such as mine, the monetary return makes it a sound business investment."

"I have been thrilled with the service I have recieved at FindLaw. The entire process of getting my website up and running has been pleasant, from talking to my sales rep about what I was trying to achieve, to working with Laura and the other folks at FindLaw to develop the content. The writers were able to take what I provided to them and work it into a website that not only looks very professional, but really portrays who I am and the kind of image I want clients to have of me. I wholeheartedly recommend FindLaw for creating legal websites. The high level of personal service the FindLaw representatives provide is an unexpected added value."

"I have had my website up for over a year and I could not be happier. To make sure the website is still working for me, My Findlaw rep periodically stops by now and again to see if there is anything else my site could be doing to bring in business. What I appreciate most is that he is not just interested in the initial sale, he seems genuinely concerned that my firm continues to get the most out of our website."
-Judith Morse

"I would consider myself to be fairly knowledge about marketing and the internet. My presence on the web was, however, sorely lacking. I asked several hundred lawyers about who I should contact to handle my website and every single one of them said Findlaw. Upon meeting my Findlaw consultant I immediately felt comfortable, as he was able to connect with me on a personal level. No fancy gimmicks. No sales pitches. Just providing me with the facts, and how FindLaw could help me achieve my goals. Since then he has maintained constant contact, and has been an invaluable resource for how to market my practice. I would not hesitate to recommend anyone to him."

Not only has Von provided me guidance in the maintenance of my website, he has brought me new ideas to jumpstart my practice and promote my company.
